It’s hard to believe there’s only five days left of this decade! Such a major milestone often brings with it some very useful motivation for driving positive change. This week’s posts were all about channeling this motivation into creating permanent healthy eating habits. 

So, let’s wrap this up with the traditional checklist…

The checklist

Here’s the 1-2-3 to a nutritional New Year’s resolution that might actually work 🙂

1. Understand why diets have such a high failure rate.
   • Permanent changes in eating patterns can only come from permanent changes to environment and habits. 
2. Intelligently shape your environment.
   • Permanently reduce calorie intake by allowing only the right foods into your home.
3. Intelligently shape your habits.
   • Take ownership of your personal healthy eating regimen.
   • Master meal timing to manage energy, cravings and sleep. 

So, if the classic health and weight loss resolutions are running through your head as we approach the new decade, why not give this a try?

As a reward, you’ll get to enjoy the next decade (and many more after that) in optimal health at your ideal weight 🙂
